Ran true duals back past the transmission, let them go into a common homemade collector, joined to said collector is a new style cat. (size of an exhaust pipe), then flows through the 3" pipe into a flowmaster 80 series
No sound clips yet, although Shel's heard it, and it sounds amazing! Better response and topend pull aswell 8)
Front down pipes, that flow back to the collector :


How they flow into collector :


Getting ready to weld it all (the cat is right on the end, so small, I love it perfect for its placement in this setup! ) :


A blind shot from the front of the car :


The "Y" and the cat feeding into the 3" Pipe :



Ill get better pictures/videos tomorrow
Tons of ground clearance no rubs, all fits like OEM

I'm not sure if this is artistic or not, but I love the way my hood turned out with the sun on it.






Oh, and here's the original (I'm restoring that truck now)

I don't have the spacers yet so I can't really mount them for real. That pic is with the wheel sitting on the ground and a jack under the car. I think it will look good with 19's in the back and 18's in the front. Should have them mounted by this weekend.
